Poor egg production
Sex ratio: Roughly equalBreeding difficulty: Average
Sucess: Fairly unsucessfulYears Experience:  
Other Comments: A lovely blue fish with pleasing disposition. I wouldn't really say that poor egg production is a problem (16-20 eggs/week/female) as the eggs are hardy and don't realy want 100s of baby nothos to feed... This fish can be long lived (18 months) if well cared for. Ideal temperature:24oC.
